- Keyboard navigation - press Ctrl+F2 to enter the top menu - Text aligned to left - Top items and submenus have a shadow - Horizontal or vertical orientation - Submenus automatically scrolls - Personal CSS styles for separate menu elements - Image arrows - Cross-frame support - menus work on frameset-based pages
Submenus can be shown in 4 ways: - From from left to right + upwards and also left to right. - From right to left and also from right to left + upwards (e.g. for right-to-left languages).
Use images for icons, backgrounds of submenus and items. Using images you can create menus entirely based on graphics.
Create both horizontal and vertical menus and submenus with any amount of menus on one page.
Insert any HTML code inside the menu item - be it a form or a picture, a flash-object or a text. This ability allows you to create various menus of any complexity.
Q: I am using Javascript Menu. Deluxe Menu. v1.12 How can I upgrade to v.2.0?
A:How to upgrade to v2.00 --------------------------------------------------------------- You can download the licensed engine .js files from the same link in your license message.Deluxe Menu v2.00 has new parameters and features. To upgrade to v2.00 you should do the following.
Step 1. 1.1 For Windows users a. Run Deluxe Tuner v2.0 (can be found in the trial menu package v2.0 http://deluxe-menu.com/deluxe-menu.zip). b. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed): select File/OpenЕ c. Save the file: select File/Save, then click "No" button when the dialog box appears.
1.2 For other OS users a. Open menu data file (.js file where menu parameters are placed) in a text editor. b. Make sure that the following variables exist in the data file:
var keystrokes = 0; var dm_focus = 1; var dm_actKey = 113;
var dynamic = 0; var smHideOnClick = 1; var itemAlignTop = 'left'; var smSmartScroll = 1;
var dmAJAX = 0; var dmAJAXCount = 30; var dmRTL = 0; var dmObjectsCheck = 0; var menuBackRepeat = "repeat"; var menuHeight = ""; var transDuration2 = 200;
If one of the variables doesn't exist - add it at the beginning of the file.
c. Save the file.
Step 2. Now open HTML-page that contains Deluxe Menu.
Step 3. Replace existent tags of the menu by the following code:
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
Step 4. Save HTML-page.
Step 5. New engine v2.00 has 7 .js files. They are: - dmenu.js - dmenu4.js - dmenu_add.js - dmenu_dyn.js - dmenu_key.js - dmenu_cf.js (new v2.00) - dmenu_popup.js (new v2.00)
Replace all old .js files by the files from v2.00.
Try that.
Q: We are an enterprise license holder and have recently purchased Deluxe Menu and are transitioning to it smoothly except for one minor annoyance; the first dhtml div menu item's submenu always has a gap between the browser’s left side as shown below. This happens for Internet Explorer 6, 7 and Firefox 2 and 3.04b.
If I move the menubar to the right about ten pixels, the submenu's left side will line up with the word "Search" as it should. Every other submenu on the dhtml div menu appears directly beneath its menubar item except for the very first one on the left. I’ve tried using a few of the example configurations but they all experience the same behavior.
The installation is in a multi-framed environment.
A: You should change dmenu.js file. Open it in any text editor and find:
space=15;
Change it to:
space=0;
Q: I've now begun to offer my clients multiple levels offunctionality. Is there any way to add another level of complexity to the php drop down menu? Would AJAX Menus be the best approach for doing this?
A:You can do it in three ways now.
1) You can use API functions to generate items dynamically:
function dm_ext_createSubmenu (menuInd, submenuInd, itemInd, iParams) function dm_ext_addItem (menuInd, submenuInd, iParams)
2) Use AJAX feature and create different .js files depend on company and user level.
3) Generate your menu items dynamically from database. Unfortunately we don't have working example with ASP.
You may generate a menu from a database or XML using any server-side script, e.g., PHP, ASP, VB, etc. However, these scripts don't work inside of Javascript .js files, so, you should move parameters of a menu from a .js file into an html-page, e.g.:
<!-- Deluxe Menu --> <noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript> <script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script> <script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script> <!-- (c) 2008, http://deluxe-menu.com -->
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2"> // and describe parameters of a menu var parameter1=value1; var parameter2=value2; etc.
var menuItems = [ // here you generate items using server-side scripts (php, asp, vb, etc.) ];
Q: I couldn't understand where to put copied SE Friendly code for the dhtml top menu.
A:You should generate search engine friendly code and install it on yourpage in the beginning of the BODY tag.
Deluxe Menu is a search engine friendly menu since v1.12. To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:
